2011 NFL In-Season Transaction Thread

This probably should have been created before the season started, but anyway...

Just saw that Tashard Choice was been claimed off waivers by the Redskins. As a 'Boys fan, I hope he doesn't go over there and decides to become something.

I don't think you have anything to worry about. If they can't block for Helu/Torain, then they're not going to all of a sudden start doing it for Choice. Besides, Helu is better than both Torain and Choice...he should see the most carries.

Definitely don't understand that move by the Skins since Royster had a lot of promise and is still on the practice squad if I'm not mistaken.

Might as well throw the Brandon Loyd trade in this thread too. I think that'll end up being a great marriage.

Lower end on the surface but the Robinson pick up in Dallas is looking like a great signing too. Hope he can finally stay healthy.

Raiders just picked up TJ Houshmandzadeh. They're clearly thinking playoff run right now. Should be a solid fit for him.

Raiders also signed on Lito Sheppard. Hes probably past his prime but they obviously think he can be helpful too.

The Raiders are getting interesting. Passing on Owens to pick up TJ, who's obviously familiar with how Palmer plays.

They have to get past Kansas City somehow though, and the Chiefs are hot right now.

No offense to Chiefs fans but they aren't THAT hot. Their offense against SD was basically hope for running room or someone catching a bomb. They were helped by all the turnovers. Now the Raiders aren't exactly world beaters so it doesn't mean KC can't keep them at bay but I wouldn't say the Chiefs have figured everything out now and they're still missing their best player on both offense and defense.

That whole division is pretty far behind other divisions right now. We will have to see how Carson Palmer does, if he preforms like his old self I think Oakland takes the division with ease, but if he flops it'll be a tough fight for any team to take the division.
